Brief Description:  Mixture control, CHT wiring, cabin heat hose

Things went much better today than they have the past few days.

On discovering that the Van's Firewall Forward kit included end bearings for 10-32 threads (which I could not find in any catelog), I retrieved one of the 60" cables with a 10-32 end that I had planned to return to Aircraft Spruce. I used this to rig the mixture control, connecting the quadrant arm to the control arm on the fuel injection servo. This ended up working out really well. No trilling of the cable was required and after some tweaking I got it all locked down. All that was required as a bracket on the engine side was an Adel clamp srewed to the engine sump. A bracket was fabricate to secure the throttle cable on the engine side and was installed

EGT wires from the harness were cut to length, connector attached and connected to probe wires.

With nearly all engine wiring complete I straightened the wiring runs and bundles them with wire ties and then wire tied them to the engine mount.

The cabin heat SCAT hose was installed with hose clamps.
